West Fein, south of the kingdom of Shiratori, on the edge of a very ordinary plain town, on a low hill stands a dilapidated temple that is being repaired by scaffolding.

Next to the temple stood several wooden huts, the wood had been cut down and not dried, and the branches and even vines were still entangled. Dotted with flowers, it is shaded by a grove on the hillside, like the dwelling of forest spirits.

The meadow beneath the low hill had been cleared out of a square field, and huge tents resembling a circus had been erected. A beautiful woman with big wavy chestnut hair came out of the grove and walked towards the tent with a suitcase, and as soon as she came down the hill she was surrounded by a group of children, chirping and shouting.

"Aunt Helva, I'll help you carry the suitcase!"

"What are you going to put on this morning?"

"We're going to see the Hell Plane Army vs. the Rock Princess!"

The woman smiled softly and said, "There is no morning show today, it only starts in the afternoon, you can help me clean it if you want to watch it for free." ”

Knocked on the head of a little boy again: "Remember to call Sister Helva!"

In a wooden house on the hillside, looking at the woman who looked like a certain countess a few years ago and mingled with children from the surveillance screen, Li Qi sighed with emotion: "Those children want to know Helva's past, I'm afraid they will be scared to the crotch of their pants." ”

The beautiful woman is Helva, the person in charge of the Intelligence Bureau Sifern, remembering the past of the "fight against gangsters and evils" on the Divine Fall Plateau, Li Qi sighed even more: "Speaking of which, Helwa is also Bensan's aunt, and she pretends to be tender in front of children so seriously...... Ouch!"

A rolling pin smashed on his head, tied with hemp braids, rolled up her sleeves, and a beautiful woman with flour on her hands shouted: "Are you sarcastic about the old lady and Bensan's aunt?"

"Aurora, you are eternally eighteen", Li Qi hurriedly flattered his wife: "Look in the mirror, you can ask the mirror without a little guilt, is the most beautiful woman in the world Aurora Behemia? If not, I will smash you!"

Even according to the characteristics of the legends of the old era, it will take another fifty or sixty years to reach middle age, so Aurora, who looks like she is forever young, sneered and said: "I knew that you were so flamboyant and a little ruffian when you put down your work, so I won't marry you!"

She reached out to recall the rolling pin and knocked on the table: "Come and help me roll the dough! Don't you want to eat at noon?"

Li Qi went over and wrapped his arms around Aurora from behind: "Look at you, our Cardinal Aurora, the great saint of love, who has become a chattering housewife after putting down her work. ”

Without waiting for Aurora to refute, the probe kissed her, and the room was silent for a moment, but the temperature rose higher and higher.

The giggling laughter outside the house approached, and Aurora gasped and patted him away: "I see that you are simply a slacker, didn't you make enough trouble last night......"

Li Qi smiled and rolled out the dough, the door was pushed open, and the royal sister, the beautiful girl and Lori rushed in, and the small room was suddenly filled with thousands of ducks.

"Do you want to eat dumplings at noon? I'll roll out the dough!"

"What's stuffing, is there dragon meat?"

"My Highness, I'm still here! I'm a dragon!"

"Oh, I'm sorry to sleep too deeply, I'm going to be a waste if I continue to live like this. ”

"It's a waste, besides, wasn't it the same as when you became rolling?"

"Finney is in good condition, Cardinal Tarence and Lord Thea went to the temple to talk to the priests, and will be back later. ”

"Helva went to the screening room to check the barrier, and I just finished checking the barrier over there in the temple, no problem!"

"Chicken!

"Auntie, be careful, tongue ......"

There are Tina, Karin, Retana, Oresa, Miss, Ellie, and Leia, as well as Judy, a trainee guardian witch. In addition, there is a traffic dragon Haligos, who is not in harmony with the beauty and loli pile.

This is the "Finney Task Force" led by Richie, and in addition to these people, there are also Tarrens, Atayal and Helva. The group went to the high union chief first and spent some time to settle local affairs. After that, disguise yourself as a wandering art troupe playing a mirage, travel through the Black Rose Kingdom under the rule of the Holy Will Empire, and enter the White Bird Kingdom, which has not yet submitted to the Will Empire.

The group traveled to this humble town in the northeastern region of the Shiratori Kingdom and decided to use it as a base for their work. Through the identity of the former high priest of the goddess of life of the half-elf Atayal, he coaxed the priests of the temple of life here, saying that he was a wandering order that spread the divine will of life by playing the illusion, and obtained the strong support of the priests and successfully established himself in the town.

Of course, the "persuasiveness" of funding for the rebuilding of the temple is stronger.

From the ever-changing Red Union to Finn's most conservative and backward place, almost completely stagnant in the medieval era, Li Qi and the others felt as if their hearts were soaked in amber, as if time had frozen.

If it weren't for the problem of Fini, and there was no Red Network and Silk Radio to receive real-time reports on the situation of the Red Federation and the trend of the war, Li Qi and the witches felt that they were on vacation, and they began to feel guilty about all kinds of slackness.

Pushed out of the table by the witches, Li Qi began to read the battle report from the Legion Committee.

The Battle of Khante Sky Reef that broke out at night was the largest battle between the Red Alliance and the Dawning Empire to date, and the countless battles between the two sides underground, on the ground, in the atmosphere, and at high altitude were basically tentative before that, after all, neither side knew what kind of combat power the other side would show after activating the war machine.

After nearly a month of testing, both sides were generally psychologically bottomed. The Dawning Empire originally wanted to directly raid Beta, but the Red Alliance obtained the information and preemptively launched the Battle of Khante Sky Reef.

By the morning that Litchie received the report, the battle had been decided.

The Red Union Navy firmly controlled the empty reef at the cost of the complete destruction of eleven bighorn whales and the loss of nearly 300 people. The Dawning Empire lost nine Viscount-class ships and twenty-three Baron-class ships, and the casualties of officers and soldiers were probably ten times that of the Red Alliance.

However, the battle was not just involving the navy, but also under the air reef, mainly in the atmospheric airspace between the Weeping Sand Sea and Bellemund, and the floating ships, planes and flying boats of both sides fought more fiercely for control of the airspace.

Compared to the obvious superiority shown by the Navy, the pressure on the Red Union Air Force is much greater. They face several times more enemies, and there is no generational gap in technology.

The Air Force lost six Horned Whales and seventy warplanes, only in exchange for nine Baron-class motherships and frigates, and more than 300 flying boats.

More importantly, the Air Force did not completely occupy this airspace, and did not even open up a "Red Union Air Corridor" with absolute control. The Dawning Empire's Flying Boat forces still had the strength and guts to launch a counterattack, which made Air Force leaders such as Linde and Ralch quite unhappy, and began to discuss a policy of further integrating the forces of the Aviator Commune.

In addition to the navy and air force, there is also a series of actions on the ground and underground, and the battles that break out are difficult to count.

Although there are still many problems in the details, on the whole, the Red Union has won the dominance of the war with its existing forces, which has exceeded Li Qi's expectations.

In the future, the front will be spread out more widely, and the forces invested will become larger and larger in scale, and the technology will become more and more advanced. However, in the short term, the Dawning Empire's actions will inevitably focus on retaking the Khante Reef and protecting the other sixteen reefs near Valentine.

Both the Red Union and the Dawning Empire saw the strategic value of the air reef, covering the assembly and operation of the floating ships was only secondary, and the real value was that these frenzied forbidden areas themselves were a source of terrifying magic, and as long as they were transformed with engineering technology, they could become unimaginable strategic weapons.

It was originally a magical forbidden area to protect Valentine, but it was transformed into a turret hanging high in the sky by the enemy, and it could continuously bombard Valentine with a ninth-level forbidden spell, and the consequences of this were completely unimaginable.

Both the Red Union and the Dawning Empire have plans to develop the forbidden air reef into a strategic weapon, and the Red Federation is steadily advancing, but the only force with a technological foundation on the Empire's side has already set up its own door and is independent of the outside world.

Occupying the air reef that can directly attack Valentine, this seizes the dominance of the war, and the direction of the next war becomes clear.

Although Li Qi was pleased with this, the pressure on his heart was not reduced at all, because the Red Federation was still facing a war between gods, and the boss on his side was not reliable at all, and he had to keep an eye on it himself.

However, things on Finny's side are unusually tricky, and there has been no major progress so far, lying in a coffin...... Oh, and the Phines in the healing pod are almost mushrooms.

Of course, it's just an exaggeration, every day Fini will be brought out to breathe, and the soul activity will continue to decrease if she has been locked in it, and if you drag it for too long, you will fall into a real sleep.

As for why Finney's matter is tricky, it is because Li Qi thought things too simple before.

He originally thought that coming here to find Finney's parents, lords, and all the people he had been connected with, educating them with a "warm and friendly" mind, and cleaning up Finnie's miserable childhood, would help Finney build a strong heart.

This is just to stabilize Fini's situation, and then talk about how to digest and even change Xiaoyin...... That is, the matter of Suren's power, to prevent Fini from becoming a little silver.

However, the first step is trouble, the nobles to which Finny's parents belong have been defeated in the war between the White Bird Kingdom and the Will Empire, and the territory has been transferred, and the people are scattered, including her parents, relatives and friends.

Now the town where Litchie is located is close to the territory of the previous "Viscount Guspenny", and Helva is mobilizing the intelligence bureau to track it down. Vicky also made inferences and came to the conclusion that Finney's parents were still alive, and there were no mountains and rivers far from them.

Perhaps what Finny needs is not a cleansing of the past, but a new life that will make her physically and mentally happy. ”

Aurora used to say, "It's like Theresia pulling you back from the Grim Reaper......"

Although he didn't say it directly, Li Qi understood what she meant, and reprimanded her very embarrassed and moved at the time: "Even if it's a solution, you can't just go straight to it without making other efforts! And my relationship with you witches doesn't mean that there is only one inevitable result, if it is, it would be too ...... It's ......"

Although the distracting thoughts of "too happy" passed through his heart, Li Qi still resolutely suppressed the distracting thoughts: "It's too rotten!"

Aurora is saying that after eating Phine, she used love and desire to make Phine's hold on to herself and digest Suren's power.

For Richie, who has two wives and the other wife has become a daughter, this is tantamount to continuing to run wildly into the abyss of sin.

Of course, Aurora's suggestion was more like a proposition, and judging by the way she nodded with satisfaction at the time, she knew that if she agreed, the skull would immediately hit him in the face.

If this is the only way, Li Qi can't help but bite the bullet, and he has also done a little investigation for this.

Unfortunately, he and Finney can't fit together now, and Suren's power lies between his and Finney's souls. Performing that kind of ...... "ritual" is difficult to say whether it is to help Fini or further stimulate Suren's power.

"The ...... Cardinal"

Tarence suddenly sent a message to Ataya dealing with outsiders at the unfinished Temple of Life: "We're in a little trouble. ”

What the old man said made Li Qi raise his eyebrows, this was forcing their team to experience the life of adventurers in the old days.

"Keep busy, I'll go to Tarrens. ”

He said hello to Aurora and the others, walked out of the house, and stepped out of an invisible barrier in the grove that even high-level transcendents could not detect, and his delicate and handsome face suddenly became ordinary.

Walking outside and contacting the locals, of course, it is impossible to show your true appearance, otherwise just those bunch of stunning witches will be enough to shock the Quartet.

At the temple at the top of the hill, Richie saluted a swaggering, fat-brained guy who was the town's clerk.

"Lord Earl said, after you arrived, it caused a lot of commotion in the territory, and with Priest Luo Ning as a guarantor, your lord will not care. ”

"But there was movement in the mountains to the north, and the earth cracked, and something terrible was about to come out, and a whole village was already suffering. It's a problem that you've had since you came here, and everybody thinks it's related to you. ”

"The only way to prove your innocence is to find out, and it is better to solve the problem. You're all professionals, it's not that hard. ”

The clerk made a proclamation without anyone in sight, and Tarence stuffed him with a few silver white bird coins, and he said with satisfaction, "The Earl has given you a five-day period, and you cannot stay here any longer unless you go to investigate, or if you do not report in detail." ”

When the clerk left, Tarence asked in the channel, "Let Helva send someone to take a look?"

This earl is really good at making people.

However, under the original Viscount Prell, Tarence and Finney, who could not pay the tolls, were also arrested and put in prison, and they were half a pound compared to the earl.

Li Qi didn't care much at first, and agreed to send someone from the Intelligence Bureau to check it out.

At noon, she was eating dumplings with everyone, and as usual, she came out of the treatment cabin, and although she was still shivering, she was able to eat by herself, and her appearance suddenly changed.

She let out a mouthful of white mist, the dumplings on the table clicked and froze into ice lumps, her eyes burst with white light, and her mouth murmured vaguely: "You wait...... Who ......?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, tilted his head and fell down, and his body twitched even more.

She was rushed into the treatment chamber, at which point Helva came back to report that the agents who had entered the mountains to the north had lost contact.

"It looks like there's a big problem lurking here, but there's been no movement, so we didn't notice it. ”

Li Qi said awe-inspiringly, pulling out a violently undulating curve in his enhanced vision, indicating that the source magic force field of this place was undergoing major changes.

Li Qi glanced at the witches and said solemnly, "We have to make a cameo appearance as an adventurer." ”https://./5_5025/
